Alphas Deaf Mate
Chapter 103

Reins

Once the air cleared, he sat and listened to what I had to say. He was very displeased to know that two of his members acted that way and was even angrier to hear that one broke a prisoner. "I would like to speak with the elder one please," he asked.

"Sure bleat me have my beta bring him in."

Opening a link to Keaton. "Keaton I need the council member that's waiting in his room to be brought to my office."

"Yes, Alpha right away,"

"Also send Zach up here too,"

"Alright. Can I ask if there is a reason?"

"I know after he speaks with him he's gonna ask for Autumn. I want her brother here when she comes just as extra protection for her."

"Got it?" "What about her parents?"

"No, not yet. He will grill her father and I do not want any issues to make Gem surface."

"Understandable. I'll send him first, then bring the council guy,"

"Thanks, Keaton."

Cutting the link. "My beta is bringing him,"

"Alright," Hearing his phone go off, he sighs then, rolls his eyes, with a groan, and he pulls it out of his pocket, and looks at it.

Swiping at the screen, he stuffs it back in his pocket.

"Everything alright?"

Nodding his head, he then rubs his forehead, " My mate is beyond pissed at me so she just informed me she is going to her parent's place for a few days." "Ouch,"

"Yeah, but I can understand her being upset, but she also needs to learn this is my duty. I can't just give that up. Does your mate get mad at you if you have to put duty before her?"

I was not sure how to answer that because I had never been in that position to make that decision. I mean my pack comes first, but with all this with Rachel, I've been so focused on keeping Autumn safe and then, when she went missing, I dropped everything to replace

her.

"Truthfully, I've never had to choose, And I have a great Beta to help with things if I'm not present. My pack is really good at helping and dealing with issues. And Autumn isn't like that. She is always putting others first."

He just nodded as he pulled his phone out again. He looked up when there was a knock on the door jam. Zach stood there looking in at us but more at the man sitting there,

"Zach, please come in,"

He walked in slowly, still gauging the guy sitting there.

Standing, I held my hand out toward Zach,

"This is Zach, my mate's brother."

"Ah, It's nice to meet you. I'm Ryker Johnson, head of the council." He held his hand out for Zach to shake. He didn't at first, he just looked at the guy, clearing my throat. Zach looked at me as I raised my eyebrows, That snapped him out of it.

"Sorry, it's a pleasure to meet you, sir," He shook his hand,

Letting his hand go, he looked at me,

"You asked to see me, Alpha?"

"Yes, Zach, I did. I would like you to sit in on the meeting with the one council member Keaton is getting him from his room,"

"Sure thing, Alpha. " He smirks. He knows why I had him come here. I'm sure Keaton told him already,

"So Alpha tell me about your mate?"

He didn't even get to finish what he was saying, causing Zach growled at his words,

"ZACH!" I yelled at him, causing him to bow, "Sorry Alpha,"

Ryker looked at Zach then smiled,

"Are you older than your sister?"

With a bob of his head," Yes Sir,"

"Well, that explains the protectiveness I was the same way over my younger sisters as well." "She is my only sister," Zach told him, but it was more like he was gritting through his teeth. "Oh, well, even more reason to be protective of her. Do you have any other siblings?"

Zach looked at me. I could see he was pleading for me to help him,

"Zach, why don't you go see what's keeping Keaton?"

'Yes Alpha," He walked out, not sparing a glance at the other guy,

"Did I say something to upset him?"

"No, it's just a painful subject for them, as they lost a younger brother in a bad car accident when he was just a baby. Zach is the oldest and it's Autumn, my mate. Those two have a bond that's super strong,"

"Oh, I didn't mean anything by asking. I was just trying to hold a conversation with him. He seemed super nervous, so I thought just talking would help. Boy, that didn't go as planned. I'm really sorry."

"I understand he's just very cautious when it comes to his sister believe me. When I found out his sister was my mate, he sat right there and asked me if I was making it up or if she really was my mate, and they weren't even part of my pack then." "Wow, boy got some guts then. Is it me or did he have a strong aorua like he's a ranked wolf?"

"His father used to be the Beta of their old pack. Zach was already born as well as Autumn when they left. And Matt has trained him hard. I'm thinking of offering him the Delta spot here as I do not have one and he would fit that spot very well, as you can see." "Yes, I would have to agree with you. He carries himself well. Definitely a strong wolf,"

Just then, we heard a knock as Keaton stepped in followed by the member and then Zach,

Ryker stood walking to Zach.

"I just wanted to say I'm sorry to hear about your baby brother. I'm not sure how I would handle it if I lost one of my sisters. Please forgive my stupid questions,"

Zach stood there. He just blinked, then looked down, seeing Ryker offering his hand. Zach took it, giving it a shake,

"It's alright. Sorry for growling earlier, I say we are even then."

Ryker gave him a nod, then turned his attention to his own member,

"What do you have to say for yourself and about the actions of your nephew?"

"What!" All three of us said, looking at the guy sitting there with a look of fear and worry on his face,

Ryker looked at us then back to the man who was trembling,

"They were unaware of who he is to you? And he committed a crime on their land!"

He swallowed hard, taking short deep breaths.

"I didn't feel that was important for them to know my history or that of Chris either,"

"You didn't feel it important! Your nephew broke laws, not only in this pack and towards this Alpha, but he broke the oath to the council!"

"It wasn't his fault he was led a stray by that woman."

"You mean the one he broke out?"

"Yes Sir"

"And tell me. was this woman so beautiful that he couldn't think straight and why didn't you step in and take over when he was favoring her?

"I'm not sure Sir, I thought he would snap out of it, but then the fight broke out and the Alphas mate broke it up with her powers and everything got so crazy before I could talk with him he had broken that woman out and was on the run," "He fought with someone?" Ryker looked at me. He knew we had fought. I had told him everything except about Autumn and her powers,

"Yes Sir, he and Alpha Reins fought, but then his mate came and,"

Ryker held his hand up, " I heard you the first time she is not my concern right now. It's you and how you didn't do your duty and let your nephew cause havoc."

"But Sir, his mate."

"I SAID ENOUGH!"

The man flinched, sitting back against the chair,

"I think I've heard enough, you and your nephew will be escorted back to the council hall and both of you will stand trial for your crimes,"

"But, sir, I didn't break any laws or an oath. How can you place me on the trail?"

"Because you were to be in charge of him, he has already messed up and I gave him a second chance because of you. You have been with us for a long time but this is the end. This tops it all. I told you if he messes up again, it's your a*s on the line," The man said no more but bowed his head in defeat. He knew there was no getting out of it and there was no helping his nephew.

"Alpha Reins, would you please have him taken down with his nephew? I do believe they have so caught up to do,"

"Keaton,"

"Yes Alpha," He walked over, grabbing the man by his arm, forcing him to stand. He walked him out of the office, Ryker then looked at me,

"I can see it on your face. Yes, I would like to meet your mate."
